Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 3 medium apples
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons apricot jam
- 1 teaspoon water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Remove the puff pastry sheet from the freezer and let it thaw according to the package instructions (usually about 5-10 minutes).
Step 3
While the pastry is thawing, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place the slices in a bowl and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Step 4
Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto the lined baking sheet. Optionally, create a small border by folding in all the edges of the pastry by about half an inch.
Step 5
Arrange the apple slices in overlapping rows or a spiral pattern on top of the puff pastry, leaving the border uncovered.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples.
Step 7
Dot the apples with small pieces of unsalted butter for extra richness.
Step 8
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the apples are tender.
Step 9
While the tart bakes, warm the apricot jam and water in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth to create a glaze.
Step 10
Once the tart is out of the oven, brush the warm apricot glaze over the apples to give them a glossy finish.
Step 11
Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally paired with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
